THR Connects Muslim Film to Santa Clarita Backlot

Blue Cloud Movie Ranch, located 30 miles north of Los Angeles, is currently for sale. Price tag: $15 million.

Unfortunately for owner Rene Veluzat, reports like this one this afternoon by Paul Bond in the Hollywood Reporter are likely to scare off buyers. All because in August 2011, a portion of the 100-acre facility in Saugus known as “Baghdad Square” was used as a filming location for the now infamous world-shaking screed Innocence of Muslims. Per Bond’s report:

JAG and Paramount and myself, we built this entire set for the JAG TV series,” says Veluzat in a YouTube video where he describes his movie ranch.
